SDCC

San Diego Comic Con has come again, and this time I will be on my own in the Small Press section, table K-05 (see diagram). I’ll be there drawing, chatting, selling prints and small originals and soaking in all the goodness that is SDCC. I will be there all five days, starting with Preview Night with doors opening at 5PM. Mini resined prints will be making a return this year, by popular demand. However many I can get done before the show opens is how many there will ever be, but so far I’m shooting for 75. They sold out by the end of the convention, and were super popular, so I’ve made a whole new batch. Nine different designs, each mini resined print is hand signed and will be available for $15 each.

I’ll have a few more updates before the show, be sure to keep an eye on my Instagram feed, as I update there most often. Also, the newsletter will be going out shortly, so make sure to sign up over there in the sidebar. Don’t worry- I never sell your info and try to be respectful of your inbox. Hope to see you at the Con!

Mini resined printsNine different designs, 3″ x 4″ mounted to birch with resin coating.$15 each, or all nine for $100.
About 75 made, available only while quantities last.

I am happy to announce that I will be at San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) this year, in booth #4531 with the Brothers Washburn of Color Ink Book. The convention runs from July 24-July 27, 2014 with a special limited preview night July 23, from 6-9PM for preview night badge holders only.

I will have several items available for purchase, most of which will be available EXCLUSIVELY at the convention, and not available for pre-order or purchase online. Any remaining unsold will be available after the show. I will also be constantly drawing, with small originals and sketchcards available for purchase.

In addition to the daily sessions in the booth, I will be participating in VERSUS II, the second annual live art battle (and seventh annual SDCC party) at Bar Basic in downtown San Diego. Hosted by Munkyking, the event pits two sets of three pairs of artists in a head to head to head art battle in front of a live crowd, fueled only by pizza, booze and a quest for glory. The winners of each set then face off for the crown, or in this case, belt. I’m honored to be paired with the legendary Johnny “KMNDZ” Rodriguez and be pitted against some amazing artists who happen to also be good friends. The night should be an unforgettable experience, if it’s anything like last year’s debut event.

these guys.

I’m pleased to announce I will be signing at ColorInk Book booth #5638 on Thursday, July 18 from 1-2PM and on Saturday, from 12:30-1:30PM. I am honored to be the cover artist for this month’s issue, and have a spread of several drawings in the magazine as well. If you’re not familiar with the excellent magazine put out by the Brothers Washburn, you’re missing out. I will also debut the cover painting “You Can Never Go Back” with a limited edition print run of 25 prints. Each print is hand signed and numbered, and as an added bonus, each print will come with a random small drawing or painting. Some will be simple ink drawings, while others will be full color small paintings, all with a retail value of $50-$150. The drawings and prints will be “blindboxed” as it were with each print, so you never know what you’ll end up with! Everyone who purchases a print will definitely get some kind of original art though. It’s a win-win as the kids say.

I’ll be drawing, painting and on hand to sign, draw in your sketchbook, or chat about pretty much anything. The booth number is #5638: Color Ink Book. See you there!
